Shisha Flavors
by John McCree
Would you like a shisha flavor that fits your taste buds? This post reveals a number of good resources for you in determining and purchasing your ideal shisha flavor.
Hookahs are used to smoke flavorful tobacco, most commonly known as "shisha". The modern day shisha consists of all or some of the following things:
1. Tobacco
2. Treacle (uncrystallized syrup produced in refining sugar)
3. Honey
4. Sugar
5. Molasses
6. Glycerin
7. Nicotine
8. Dried Fruit
9. Distilled Water
Even though today's most well-known shisha producers have gotten very creative with their flavors, like Starbuzz's "Blue Mist" or Fantasia's "Cuban Mojito", the mainstay shisha flavors remain fruit flavors like Apple, Banana, or Mango. Most of the newer flavors do, however, take their cues from the tried and tested traditional fruit flavors. For instance, Blueberry Muffin or Pink Lemonade definitely have their roots in a fruity base.
Shisha flavors have become versatile due to relative simpleness of flavoring during production. The dried tobacco, glycerin, and sweetener can be blended with basically any ingredients to create unique flavors.
Social Smoking
Hookah is normally shared in a social environment where the smokers may gather for pleasant discussion and to enjoy the fragrance created by the flavored shisha smoke. As hookahs grew in popularity through the Middle East hundreds of years ago, it became typical to find them in drinking and eating establishments. Nowadays, you can find hookahs even in the homes of many people.
Most of the growing popularity of shisha can be attributed to the flavor and calming effect of the smoke. People smoke it out of social pursuit and not for some biological effect it elicits. Whereas cigarettes give more of a "quick fix" having a potent dose of nicotine and a generally unpleasant aroma, a flavorful hookah session may last an hour or longer, and shisha doesn't have near the addictive features as cigarettes.
Getting the Most Flavor from Your Hookah
No rocket science here, just some good common sense and discipline can go a long way when it comes to getting the best from your hookah. The first and most critical thing is to clean your device routinely. You need to wash your hookah carefully with warm water after each use.
Regarding specific tactics, it's important to prevent the coals from burning the tobacco mid-session. Make the bowl in such a way as to stop the tobacco from becoming stuck to the foil or screen; in fact, try not to let the tobacco to touch the foil by any means. When you are packing the bowl, make sure that the tobacco is at least a couple of millimeters below the rim of the bowl. Then, when you wrap the foil taught around the head, you'll obviously have the desired amount of space required to stop the dreaded burn. Another technique that you can use to maintain distance between foil and the tobacco is to put two toothpicks in cross on the tobacco. Tobacco should not be packed down very tightly in the bowl. Rather, loosely pile it into a fine mound allowing the air to flow through the mound. Doing so, you'll be able to get a flavorful hit without having to strongly puff on the hose. Some people also use two sheets of aluminum foil to prevent overheating. The name of the game here is: KEEP IT REALLY CLEAN AND DON'T BURN THE SHISHA!
